Why Silverfish Are a Particular Issue in Langley
Fort Langley's heritage homes from the 1920s to 1940s and older Brookswood/Fernridge homes from the 1950s to 1970s carry the below-grade moisture that silverfish colonize. Basement suite conversions in these older homes — a common renovation throughout Langley's older residential areas — create below-grade bathroom plumbing and limited ventilation that accumulates moisture year-round.
Langley's valley position and agricultural character means it receives above-average humidity compared to coastal Metro Vancouver cities — hay, greenhouse, and field moisture keep ambient humidity levels elevated, which affects below-grade spaces in older homes.
